So What Do We Do At Left Tackle?

[Boltgang74]

And personally I hope TTs tenure hinges on Pip.Heres to hopin he becomes a probowler

Yeah that's a bummer. They didn't give up much but I know it would be hard for us to offer a new contract for Williams with all the extensions this team needs.

chargers easily could have done both the trade and the extension

I get the 49ers are in a better spot so maybe Trent had different contract figures for the niners than other teams

But they could afford both the draft picks and the salary

I would be on the phone with Jason Peters - kicking the tires - on April 27 when the comp pick window closes and be ready with some $$ cash, dollar bills y'all

[Boltgang74]

Yeah if we woulda grabbed TW I would feel real optimistic about our season.

I will feel a lot better if the team brings in Peters at OT. I have looked at current Free Agents and the only other one that might make sense is Beachum. But hey, maybe Norton at this point is better than Beachum.

Trent for a 5 and a future 3 was a steal.

[Silversurfer]

Yeah someone unless they think Pipkins is the left side savior.

[nomad1946]

Trust in Pumpkins. :troll:

Left tackle? Boltjolt and I have been telling you guys all along - we don't need no stinkin' LT - we already have a couple of stinkin' Left tackles!

I used to be indecisive. Now I'm not sure.

The asking price was a 2nd
I would believe a 4th and a 3rd is slightly less than 2nd (but very very close to the same value in terms of pick value)

A 5th this year and a 3rd next year is nowhere close to a 2nd. I would have pulled the trigger as long as I didn't have to pay his extension.

No if's and or buts about it. Not only that but i'll go even further in saying we need to do whatever it takes, well as long as it's reasonable to get Penei Sewell from Oregon who imo if it wasn't Trevor Lawrence or Justin Fields being the top two picks next year Penei Sewell would be the number one choice. Im usually against making trades where we have to give up more then we want but in this case I think it warrants it. You're going to be hearing a lot about the Sewell family in the NFL when all is said and done. If you're a duck fan then you'll know about his little brother Noah who will be a top ten pick when he's done playing.

What if Pip turns out to be a solid LT?
